Att världen idag kan te sig ganska liten är inget att ta miste på.

Narkotikalagstiftningen i de europeiska länderna skiljer sig åt, och den här uppsatsen har som syfte att jämföra den portugisiska och den svenska lagstiftningen. Även om de två länderna har anslutit sig till samma internationella konventioner på området, de tre FN-konventionerna som sätter upp de yttre ramarna för kriminalisering av t.ex. illegal droghandel, så har de valt olika tillvägagångssätt Drug legislation in Europe differs from country to country, and this paper is intended to compare the Portuguese and Swedish legislation.
